Project description:Alcohol is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) although the mechanisms underlying the alcohol-related liver carcinogenesis are still poorly understood. Alcohol is known to increase hepatocarcinogenesis possibly by inducing aberrant DNA methylation through the reduced provision of methyl groups within the hepatic one-carbon metabolism. Whether the epigenetically-regulated pathways in alcohol-associated HCC can be reversible or modifiable by nutritional factors is unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate the genome wide promoter DNA methylation profiles along with array-based, gene expression profiles in non-viral, alcohol-associated HCC. From eight HCC patients the methylation status and transcriptional levels of all annotated genes were compared by analyzing HCC tissue and the cancer-free surrounding liver tissue, following curative surgery. After merging both the DNA methylation and gene expression data, we identified 159 hypermethylated-repressed, 30 hypomethylated-induced, 49 hypermethylated-induced and 56 hypomethylated-repressed genes. A number of potentially novel candidate tumor-suppressor genes (FAM107A, IGFALS, MT1G, MT1H, RNF180) demonstrated promoter hypermethylation and transcriptional repression in alcohol-associated HCC. Notably, promoter DNA methylation appeared as the regulatory mechanism for the transcriptional repression of genes controlling the retinol metabolic pathway (ADH1A, ADH1B, ADH6, CYP3A43, CYP4A22, RDH16) and SHMT1, a key gene within one-carbon metabolism. A genome-wide DNA methylation approach linked up with array-based gene expression profiles allowed identifying a number of novel, epigenetically-regulated candidate tumor-suppressor genes in alcohol-associated hepatocarcinogenesis. Retinol metabolism genes and SHMT1 are also epigenetically-regulated through promoter DNA methylation in alcohol-associated hepatocarcinogenesis. 16 samples (8 control samples from non-neoplastic liver tissue, 8 test samples from hepatocellular carcinoma) from 8 patients affected from hepatocellular carcinoma were analyzed.

Project description:Alterations in DNA methylation frequently occur in hepatocellular cancer (HCC). We have previously demonstrated that hypermethylation in candidate genes can be detected in plasma DNA before HCC diagnosis. To identify, with a genome-wide approach, additional genes hypermethylated in HCC that could be used for more accurate analysis of plasma DNA for early diagnosis, we analyzed tumor and adjacent nontumor tissues from 62 Taiwanese HCC cases using Illumina methylation arrays (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA) that screen 26,486 autosomal CpG sites. After Bonferroni adjustment, a total of 2,324 CpG sites significantly differed in methylation level, with 684 CpG sites significantly hypermethylated and 1,640 hypomethylated in tumor, compared to nontumor tissues. Array data were validated with pyrosequencing in a subset of five of these genes; correlation coefficients ranged from 0.92 to 0.97. Analysis of plasma DNA from 38 cases demonstrated that 37%-63% of cases had detectable hypermethylated DNA (? 5% methylation) for these five genes individually. At least one of these genes was hypermethylated in 87% of the cases, suggesting that measurement of DNA methylation in plasma samples is feasible.The panel of methylated genes indentified in the current study will be further tested in a large cohort of prospectively collected samples to determine their utility as early biomarkers of HCC.
